Woman we showed a picture of getting 900 a month while dealing meth, her boyfriend was a cocaine dealer. Had such an arsenal of weapons, it was enough to outfit a platoon. These people are getting food stamps. This shows exactly why this country, to protect its sovereignty, must be a nation of laws, must be a nation that follows the constitution. Under fortunately, under the past president , barack obama, the immigration and Customs Enforcement regulation, he really watered them down and ransacked that department. As a result those caught entering the country illegally, those caught and deported went way down. David protesters dont deal with the fact that the deporter in chief was President Obama. He deported 3 Million People and that averages to about 1,000 a week during his term as president. Thats actually much less than what President Trump is doing. Well, look, i dont want to
but that leaves you with a net to the taxpayer of 14,000 per year per immigrant. Youre right, david. I hear that i dont think that majority of illegals are criminals. Treating like rounding errors. The woman cited arrested, she was in a violent drug gang. She was. Where 11 of 25 members. 11 got welfare, 11 of them. So, by the way, twothirds of illegal households are on some form of welfare and those are estimates coming in. David thats a lot of money, but, steve, to the other to the protesters point, there is a cost to deportation, i think its over 3 billion a year. Well, thats simply security, david, and that should be irrelevant. The key thing is, does it save lives. This gets to the thing of
sanctuary cities where they refuse to allow local Law Enforcement to work with the federal government, violent criminals in new york. A guy of ms13 gang, one of the most violent around wouldnt let Immigration Officials interview this guy, the guy could be released to Rikers Island and the feds could pick them up. Thats outrageous. David for all the talk of the innocent people being deported, again, under donald trump, under the deportation being criticized by protesters, 75 of those being deported are criminals, unrelated to their illegal activity. These are hardened criminals, those are the people being deported. Yeah, and thats as it should be. Thats a good start and i applaud the Trump Administration for doing that. There are 11 million illegals in the United States and what you have to do, because theyre theres not an unlimited amount of money, nor cops out there to do all the enforcement to send every one of those 11 million
back, you have to prioritize with the violent criminals and felony criminals, and work your way back. At some point theres going to be a cost benefit that no longer works, but lets start with the violent and felonious criminals. And theres also money. The Public Safety side of this issue and the money side and sometimes they come together. Perhaps these deportations will save taxpayers money. Yeah, i understand that, but and i know this show is about money, there are two bigger issues here, i think. Number one, why do we get to pick and choose what laws we follow, does this mean that every city and state says i dont want to follow this law, ill follow that law. The law is the law and it must be followed. If you want to change the law, Congress Needs to pass a different law. I realize that rich is saying 11 million illegal number, but that number has been out there for years, that would imply
over the last several years there hasnt been an increase of people coming into the country illegally and i dont buy that. David bill baldwin, go ahead. Im all in favor of deporting violent criminals here illegally. Arent we all . Is there some way we can make this country more welcoming to people who want to come here legally and a lot less pourous for people who dont want to come here legally. I dont think that the president has the answer to that tough question. David rich, go on. Here, here. And you go back through republican and democratic administrations over the last several, and theyve not solved this problem. But youve got to prioritize. Thats all im saying. Youve got to prioritize, i think we all agree with that. You start with the violent and felonious criminals. David ive got to say, mark, that so far, that 75 figure of those being deported being felons, is better than what President Obama had. And President Obamas best average during his term was
58 , so trump is doing better in terms of focusing on the felons than President Obama did. Go ahead. But 75 of what figure, david. David 75 of the folks who have been deported under President Trump have been felons. We dont know what that number is. David President Obama had 58 so President Obama didnt deport as many felons as trump has. Go ahead. So, a couple figures. If theres 11. 9 million illegals in the country, the number of people who have committed crimes is more like 2 million. And of those who have committed serious crimes is 800,000, probably or even less. So, i mean, 75 of what figure, 500,000, 600,000 . This is a small, small problem in our country and were no, its not, people are getting killed. Throwing the entire weight of the government behind it. Theyre going to spend enormous sums. David emack, when people are getting killed, its a big
problem. Weve had on camera a woman whose son was tortured and set on fire by an illegal criminal. Im for passing citizenship for legal and abiding, so is President Trump, you cant deport 11 Million People, thats ridiculous, and the size of the force you need to do that, no way. So, i think that theres common sense. What trump would like to do. No, hes not going to do 11 million. David wrap it up, steve. Mark did it on the bottom line, 800,000 serious criminals here he will legally and trying to send back 600,000, thats the nobrainer, whats the problem here . And the president says hell lash our spending, some say go big or go home. Its time to scrap entire agencies. They name which ones next. There are car bombs and drones and a thousand civilians are reportedly walking across the front line to escape the violence. Thats a look at news. Now, back to forbes. David unfortunately, the budget that were inheriting, essentially inheriting is a mess. Our moral duty to the taxpayer requires us to make our government leaner and more accountable. David leaner and more accountable. President trump vowing against this week to cut government waste, reduce the national debt. He says his budget is going to focus on slashing spending, but steve says, the president has to do more than scrap spending piecemeal. He needs to scrap whole departments. We put up three, by the way, steve, as an example you can your expendable, commerce, energy and education, because between the three of them thats over 100 billion there. Thats right. Hes throwing Housing And Urban Development youll get more. Some of the things the agencies
do need to be done, but youre talking 5 or 10 billion out of 120 billion. Thats the only way you reduce spending is reducing the scope of what the government does. David mark, i grew up in washington d. C. And i used to walk through some of the big departments and see people pushing paper from here to there. So much of the money goes to the bureaucracy. That doesnt help taxpayers, does it . It certainly doesnt, david. But i think that trump should, i realize Congress Passes the budget, not the president , but trump should look to congress. We pay the average Congress Person 174,000 per year. They worked 101 days last year. They get generous pensions and Generous Health insurance benefits. This comes at a time where were asking the average american to tighten their budget. Why dont we why doesnt trump say, hey, why should lawmakers get a salary
and eliminate that. David im in 100 agreement with mark for the first time let me go to rich. Were talking here hundreds of billions of dollars. What mark suggests is perfectly reasonable, but wouldnt scratch the surface of what needs to be done, right . Well, you know, John Dillinger the bank robber said, why do you rob banks . Because thats where the money is. You know where 80 , four out of five federal dollars, you know where they are, in defense, social security, medicare and medicaid. I dont hear trump talking about cutting those back. I hear about him expanding them. That said, i think his advisor steve bannon talked about deconstructing the Administrative State at cpac, the sludge in businesses. Trump people are ready for th that. I love the idea of drain the sludge. You have Government Workers and unions fighting tooth and nail. The government worker unions are ruining it for the private sector unions, right, in places, sectors like manufacturing. David mike, this Guy Paul Winfrey does impress me a lot. Im glad hes in charge of putting together a list, again, will they have the follow through . They have a list, will they be able to carry it out . I believe that trump will. I dont think weve seen a guy like this in a long, long time, david. As for what could be cut . Id love to see 8 billion slated for the 2020 census get slashed. I think the census is unamerican. The last census the woman came to my house and asked me where my grandparents came from and where i came from. David i know. What race i was. Why does that matter. David we dont need it, we can
save money and our own privacy by getting rid of it. Steve, again, the follow through of the Trump Administration, theyre up against, you know, a bureaucracy thats been there for decades. Do they have the wherewithal to get rid of it . Thats a long haul thing, david, and the answer is, i think they will. And by not eliminating at the beginning whole departments, but giving Department Things in the department is good. What the real problem is, david, its not just the bureaucracy, its the congress. Each Congress Person has a subcommittee that has an agency. They have championships and youre taking their toys. David id like to say a prayer for paul winfrey, the guy in charge of the budget cuts. One heck of a job in front of him. The cashin in gang ready to roll at the bottom of the hour. Eric, what do you have . A Congress Woman using offensive language to blastPresident Trumps cabinet. Imagine if theyd used this language for President Obamas staff. And kids at school. David were not done. Up next here, hollywood celebrities and Companies May want to tune into this one. Lots of americans saying they may tune out if Oscar Speeches go off on politics. Knowing where you stand. Its never been easier. Except when it comes to your retirement plan. But at fidelity, were making Retirement Planning clearer. And it all starts with getting your Fidelity Retirement score. In 60 seconds, youll know where you stand. And together, well help you make decisions for your plan. On sunday. Before the winners accept their awards they might want to listen to this. The new survey, seven in ten trump voters. They turn out when awards speeches get political. A lot of people who could hurt ratings in future Box Office Sales. Weve been lectured to under the Obama Administration and im glad were out of the teachers faculty lounge. Make the oscars great again, no politics at the oscars. David what do you think . I dont see any problem, hollywood an entertaining. And meryl streep claiming to be a member of the victimized oppressed class. David talk about meryl streep, i dont know if its all about Box Office Sales because she got very political and she was nominated for a movie that Hollywood Reporter says is atrocious and nominated, they say, because of the fact that she had these antitrump tirades. I havent seen the movie, david and meryl streep is one of my favorite actresses of all
time. I think theyre hurting themselves. Back to 1998, upwards of 50 Million People were tuning into the oscars. The number is down to 35 million today. Only hurting themselves. People dont watch entertainment to be preached to. David thats right. And steve, the fact is that sometimes the politics of these people does affect their judgment, right . It does, indeed. What they should do is take a cue from lady gaga far to the left, but what she did at the super bowl, fantastic entertainment. David avoided politics entirely. And respected her audience, which hollywood has got to learn to do. David some people say theres irony because trump himself an entertainer and George Clooney mentioned that. Hes an entertainer and he is i think hes trying to entertain us in the hollywood. Hollywood has been political. Jane fonda and hanoi jane. And trump voters half the
population and half is hollywood. David and rich, youre closer to hollywood than any one of us. I think theres false outrage here and i think its poisoning the culture. I dont agree with tom hanks politics or lebron james or steph currys in basketball. Am i supposed to boycott basketball and movies because of this, absurd. David and Marlon Brando got an Academy Award he didnt accept he sent an indian activist for, i believe for the godfather. The godfather became a popular movie at the box office, one of the best of all time. Maybe, but i dont want to be lectured to and why do we
have to look at people mimic for a living. David and we will come away with the winners, but our informers have the picks that are already award winning. Ly did start saving. This gap between when we should start saving and when we actually do is one of the reasons why too many of us arent prepared for retirement. Just start as early as you can. Its going to pay off in the future. If we all start saving a little more today, well all be better prepared tomorrow. Prudential. Bring your challenges
